I love how they gave up after Nigel showed up.

Story of my life.

Well, you know, they're probably gentlemen or something.

[Roly Poly Oly-Garch]

I think I'm kind of in love. Didn't really expect it, but what the hell.

Yeah?

Old man on the side.

I guess after two and a half years, why not?

If it's who I think it is, then I feel better about the whole thing.  For what it's worth.

Aw. Yeah, it's that guy.

Not that me and love are ever a good idea, but hell, he's about the nicest person there is. I think the main thing is that he's the first guy I think I've ever dated who just flat-out accepts me for who I am, and doesn't try to shoehorn me into being what he wishes I was.

He also seems to be resistant to the Nigel Effect.

I hadn't thought of that, but it's true!

You know the number of times we've had an argument or clashed over anything in the last 2.5 years? Zero times. He is not needy or clingy or a head-tripper. He doesn't whine or wish I spent more time with him.

Similar state of affairs with the lady I've been hanging out with. Seven months or so now, and nary a whisper of a grrr. No head trips. No weird emotional weirdness from either one of use. Hell...7 months in and we're still "hanging out," though feels are certainly beginning to develop.

I absolutely don't know how to navigate waters this calm (not that I know how to navigate stormy waters well...just more used to them). Confused as all hell. And by "confused" I mean, faced with a situation that is in no way conflicted, troublesome, or confusing in any way. Confused by my definition of confused, I think.

Yeah, you know, it's weird; all of my past romantic relationships involved classic American Love Story elements: The Sparks. The Obstacle. The Longing. The Clash of Wills. The Madly In Love. The Trouble. And finally, The Heartbreak.

I was so bought into that model that for the first two years with the old man, I was like "Meh, this is fun but it's just a summer fling. Meh, I really like him but it's not like I'm in love with him. Meh, we just enjoy each other's company but it's not like it'll ever be serious." And then I realize we're pushing up on three years AND I STILL REALLY LIKE HANGING OUT WITH HIM. It's just really really nice and I really like it and nothing ever really sucks or is really bad, because we both kind of have a "hey, why not?" attitude towards whatever happens.

I'm not even really sure what "being serious" means, anymore. We're never serious, we just have a good time and are good to each other. And I don't really ever want to go back to my previous model of "love" because it was exciting and dramatic and made for some good art, but it FUCKING SUCKED. It's a bad model, and I'm glad to be rid of it.

[Mesozoic Mister Nigel]

Not dead.

Yay!

[LMNO]

It's a bad model, and I'm glad to be rid of it.

Also yay!

Also yay!

Here's to getting older and wiser!

THE ONLY MOVIE REVIEW OF INTERSTELLAR THAT YOU NEED:

A moody, but exciting sci-fi spectacle that sometimes gets in over its head with philosophical mumbo-jumbo. I would have liked to see more planets and the like.

Mostly, watch it to see the robots if you like cool robots.

Says nothing about driving while unconscious.  I feel ripped off.

Calm water has powerful undercurrents that quietly pull you to the riverbed to gently drown among heaps of beer cans.

Just saying.
